EphraimAdamz Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Tell 'em, Bu. I'll stick with their main predecessor/template *has Michael on full blast* Yea but Usher is the only one out the currents that even seems remotely genuine when it comes to copying MJ.

Reyna ♔ Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Yea but Usher is the only one out the currents that even seems remotely genuine when it comes to copying MJ. He's the main copy(aside from Chris) and that's the problem. I prefer the original over the copy because copies often lack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illi Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I don't really like Usher (or Chris Brown much either), but I wish some people will just past the torch. Usher nor Chris will be like MJ but that doesn't mean they can't have success in the industry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if that's the case, someone has to stick around and tie the gap between generations. I don't mind Usher being the one to remind our youth who MJ is. Like I said there could be worse picks (Jason, Taio, Jay) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After Bad, at least musically, he wasn't exactly setting trends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the dance stuff out right now is just an extension of the stuff MJ was doing anyways (Rock With You, Billie Jean, Thriller). If anyone knows about dance and dance music it's the jackson family. The only difference is that the sounds people use now are more computerized. You can slow down on that last part though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So on that note, he isn't exactly following anyone, now is he? Usher's genre choice isn't my problem, it's the lack of quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 well if you can buy a Grammy, that pretty much kills it's value altogether, makes me wonder when this shit started and talent got left out? And who all knew this was going on? This should be a big scandal because I know if I was up for a Grammy and didn't get what I should have I would be pissed.

Mariah & Janet really should not have just 5 grammies, they've both put out 3 albums that should've gotten 5 at once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remeber at the time of nominations the press reported that Janet was "slighted" in nominations for the Janet album, one reviewer predicted before the noms, that the album Janet. was a sure bet for nomination (Album of the Year). Clearly The Velvet Rope was shorted, it still ranks as her highest "favored" album Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeJoe Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Chris didn't deserve a Grammy and he and everybody who watched it knows it. I believe this story. Oh and if Usher ain't the King then who is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwistedElegance™ Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I can't wait for CB's string of angry tweets which he'll delete half an hour later. Raymond vs. Raymond 1. Monstar 2. Hey Daddy (Daddy’s Home) feat. Plies 3. There Goes My Baby 4. Love ‘Em All 5. She Don’t Know feat. Ludacris 6. Lil Freak Usher feat. Nicki Minaj 7. Mars vs. Venus 8. Prolover 9. Foolin’ Around 10. Papers 11. So Many Girls 12. Guilty feat. T.I. 13. OMG featuring will.i.am 14. Making Love (Into The Night) Putting one dance song on your last album does not suddenly turn you into a pop artist. Unlike Chris brown who has 5 electro house tracks on his "RnB" album Now I know you didn't forget about the deluxe edition. 'DJ Got Us Selling Out' and 'More' were as generic as anything Jaysean Derulocruz has served up. Not to mention Usher's guest appearances on Enrique Iglesias and David Guetta singles. Chris didn't deserve a Grammy and he and everybody who watched it knows it. I believe this story. Oh and if Usher ain't the King then who is? R. Kelly is the king of R&B.
